Collateral put up by the ring for ad.
yances has been mostly certhcates OF
wheat on hand, and an interesting
question OF the future will be
the ownership of one-half the by
notbecated stock. The action taken
by the board of directors in stopping
ali hoard sessions, is deemed very re-
markable; but that it sverted panic is
conceded, and Dresbach's proposition
was accepted this afternoon, as
virtual result that spectators
and brokers, shorts included,
have agreed to keep their hands off the
market for the time being and both
bulls and bears backed down. The
money squeezed out of the
shorts on margin win be re-
funded, and they will lose nothing.
Dresbach has the shorts so badly scared
that they are willing to get out without
making anything, making the outcome
one of the most remarkable on record.
Many of the "shorts" came out ahead
on the settlement, but part from loss
inflicted on the "bull clique" proper,
no firm losses are mentioned in excess
of $4,000. The session of the call
board has been postponed indefinitely
and the actual market price of wheat
cannot be determined for several days,
although the nominal figure is $1.70.

SAR FRAEoIsoo. August 3.-The big
bull deal in wheat collapsed here to-day.
There had been mutterings of trouble
for several days and the outcome was
not entirely unexpected. The prices
we're reached last Monday when the
bulls offered $2171l for wheat. Yester-
day the market dropped to $2.14; this
made the price 21sc per pound in San
Francisco against 11sc. in Chicago, 1Lc.
in New York, and 6-10c. in LIVERPOOL.
The collapse of the deal was not at
tended by the usual excitement.
All sessions of the call board
were adjourned under resolutions
adopted by the board of directors and
posted on the door of the Exchange.
The reason given was desire to avert
the threatened panic. This step was
not altogether unanticipated, and a
feeling OF relief was experienced by both
parties, who had been strained to the
utmost during the past few days. No
failures were reported up to a late
hour this evening, and it is believed all
deals will be compromised, so as to
avoid any such disasters on the street.
Two of the chief bull traders were Will
lam Dresbach and John Rosenfeld, but
the theory is accepted that they repre-
scented other interests. They are
known to be responsible for $1,000
tons of wheat, held under various
optious for delivery during this year.
now stand at $2.15 per
GENITAL. They made an offer to settle on
the following terms: To settle and pay
at once loo. per GENITAL as soon as sellers
have wheatready for delivery and ten
der it. Further, to pay 35c. per GENITAL,
which would leave the price standing
with balance due OF $1.70. This they
propose to accept and pay for one
fourth in September, one fourth in Oc-
tober, one-fourth in November. and the
final one-fourth in December. They
also propose to pay sellers interest at
the rate of 7 per cent. per an
mum on all the deferred payments,
together with the customary storage
and insurance charges to secure mar
gin of 80 cents per ton. They propose
to deposit ample security in the form
Of wheat, with the board of directors;
IN other words, they asked sellers to
carry wheat in their interest and pay
them for doing so. The total amount |

it is stated that it has required SIS, 000,-

CHICAGO, Nov 3-About noon today
Mrs. Lucy Parsons, wife Of the condemned
anarchists, descended the stairs leading to
Spalding's printing Office, on Clark street,
and began TO sell the pamphlet entitled
"Was it a Fair Trial?" She had her arms
full of the documents and was selling them
lat five cents apiece. No attempt at speech
making was made but the unaccUstOmed
spectacle of q woman selling anarchistic
Pamphlets attracted considerable crowd.
AZ was some time before it was
sknowl that the mysterious vender was
Mrs Parsons, and III a minute the street
was packed with spectators. Finally TWO
officers came up and took Mrs. Parsons be-
fore Chief Ebersoll. That officer decided
that Mrs. Parsons had the same right to
sell her books that other vendors of liteFa
itUre had, and said she might continue in
the book business as long as she pleased,
provided she did not blockade the side
walks and streets. Accordingly, return

JENNY LIND.
A Short History of the Wonderful Sweed
ish Singer.

LONDON. Nov. 3.-Jenny Lind was born
in Stockholm, October &. 1921. Her father
was a teacher. Her wonderful talent at
tracted the attention of Nine Lungberg,
who introduced her to the famous teachers
Of music, Craelis and Berg, and TO Lind
blad. the composer. She was then procur-
ed admission to the Musical Academy,
where her progress was very rapid. After
acting and singing in children's parts FOR
several years her voice failed her. -Four
wears passed before it was restored sudden
Iy at public concert, and
she sang the part of Alise III Meyerbeer' :
Robert lie Diable' with such artisic
finish and brilliancy that her success was
insured.
In 1871 she went to Paris and took lessons
of Garcia There she was introduced to
Meyerbeer. who took such an interest in
her that he obtained admission for her TO
appear i'll NJ Pilet's opera. Here she met
with no success and left Paris. Afterward,
III 1915, due to Meyerbeer's influence, she
distinguished herself in Berlin. She re-
peated her triumph in Norman, at Vienna,
in the Camp OF Silas" and the Daughter
OF the Regiment"
She came to America under contract with
p. L. Barnum for $50 concerts IN 1870.
Here she met with unbounded success and
enthusiasm, but ut her ftty-ninth concert
she terminated her engagement, as she had
become utterly worn out. In 1852 she 1nar-
ried Otto Goldschmidt and returned TO
Europe. In 1859 she took up her residence
in England, where she has since resided.
Her voice was sweet, flexible soprano, full
of tenderness.
Charles Balmer the veteran music
dealer of st. Kouis, knew Jenny Lind init
mately. He made pilgrimage to her
home in London in 1889, and of her he
cheriShes many pleasant "reminiscences.
Il first saw her in 1851" he said. Her
face then showed little piInples that after
ward developed into the caGoSr Of which
she is now dying. Yet she had a most
beautiful. expressive face, and splendid,
large blue eyes. Hers was one Of those
noble, animated faces that charmed one by
their intelligence far more than mere
beauty.
Jenny Lind was about five feet two
inches in height, Of graceful figure and
easy in bearing.
Ia 1882 | called on her in London. She
was living at the time a very happy home
life with Herr GOldschmidt. She only ap-
peared in public for charity, and always
sang behind a screen. as her face was 50
distigured with the cancer. But her
voice was unimpaired. She mad
pupils in music, and spent a
good deal of time training her daugh-
ter She has led very unostentation,
simple home life, but was always glad TO
see her musical friends, and the great
musicians when in LondOp generally made
it point to call upon her. List called
upon her last summer Y, nen he was in
London. Although at that time she must
have suffered extreme pain from the dis
ease that was gnawing out her life, but
she never complained. Hers was one Of
those rare sweet natures that Dear pain
and affiiction without a murmer."

fo'clock this evening, and two passengers
who Jumped from the car were caught

Caused by the ttiagman, Stewart

spassed, Cunningham not noticing a
freight train coming in the opposite direc-

with passengers on their way home, sue
ceeded in getting nearly over the railroad
track when Mr.. Culp and Mrs Wyman
ran out on the rear platform and
jumped off, the other passengers
remaining in the car. The engine of
the freight train struck the car and
tore off the platform but did no other da21-

track and before the train could be stop
ped they were ground TO death under the
rwhels of the engine. The other passengers
were not injured The remains of the two
unfortunates were picked mp and conveyed
to their homes. Culpp was a married man,
about 50 years of age. Mrs. Wyman was
80 years old. The accident created intense
excitement among the passengers and

tt IS remarkable how firmly the fierce
anarchist believes in law and in govern
ments when he finds hrs neck in danger
Of being judicially elongated. Here is
General Butler taking q good round fee
from Fielden and Spies. to appear before
the highest court Of the United States
and argue that these cowardly murders
should not be hanged because they had
never been naturalizsd and therefore
citizens respectively Of Germany end
England. And General Butler has the
reputation Of being q great criminal law
Yer. Evidently his forte is talking to a
thick-witted jury. Before the United
States supreme court he appeared a-
premely ridiculous. and he made his an
archist clients aPEe.r even wore than
ridiculous.

RAILWAY MILEAGE,

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-The Railway Age OF
tomorrow will say: During the last few
months the work of railway building has
been going on in the United States at d
rate never before equaled. The great pros
perity of the country and the tendency to
migrate into new and undeveloped regions,
have encouraged the great railway com
panies to push forward an enormous
amount Of new mileage in order to antici-
pate or keep up with a similar enterprise
On the part of their competitors. From
January l to November l "a roads have
laid total Of 940S miles OF
track. More track has been laid
so far this year than in the
year of 1886. and exceeds the record Of all
other years in the history of this or any
other country The greatest activity has
been exhibited in broad belt west of the
Missouri river, stretching from Dakota and
Montana south to the gulf. Kansas con-
tinues, as last year, far in the lead, showing
already an addition Of at least $50 miles
since the year began. Nebraska follows
next with a report of 867 miles, Texas with
S34 miles, Colorado with us miles, and Da-
kota with esq miles. These four states and
one territory already have added 4, 16S miles
OF new railways, or more than half Of the
total thus far reported for the entire

A NAVAL REPORT.

Fourth Auditor Shelly, in his annual
report to the secretary Of the interior,
shows the financial operations of the
United States navy during the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1897, as follows: Amount
appropriated, $38, 1SS, 59G: drawn out by
warrants, SIS, l52, 13G; balance on hand
81. $50. 423: expended as shown by vouchers,
81. SJ4, 291, amount overpaid. SIS, 30l; car
ried to the surplus fund, S41G037. During
the year 81, 1874, 19j was paid out on account
of6 19S navy prisoners. The auditor objected
to the system by which disbursing officers
are allowed to pay out large sums on con
tracts before the bills have been audited,
and suggests that steps be taken to nave
all demands for payments under contracts
in the navy presented to his Office for settle
ment. and that payments by discussing
officers be restricted to necessary current
expenses, such as pay Of officers and men,
itures on ship board and purchases IN for

q SNAKE STORY.

SALEM, \. j., Nov 3-The people of FL
mer and vicinity, in this county, are much
excited over an unpleasant visitor in the
shape of a monster snake. A few days
ago John Van Meter, farmer, was cut
ting down the scrubs and suckers along
the fence between his farm and that of
Horace B. Shoemaker While at work he
was struck with the tail of large spotted
snake and knocked down. When he re-
gained his footing he made tracks for
home. While fleeing he hastily observed
the monster and pronounced it as being
fully twenty-five feet long and as thick as
q stOvepipe. When he had recovered from
his fright be organized a gang of dozen Of
the local residents and went in search OF
the huge reptile, but the monster could
not be found. Frederick Vineyard, who
occupied the same farm about twenty
years ago. stated he saw the same reptile
when he was a tenant. 1t was then just as
long as it IS now and was exceedingly bold.
Daniel Hitchner, who was farm hand at
the same time, for years related startling
stories of the waller cover" order about
the "b0ay-constrictert that hankered around
the lower sawmil and swallowed negro
ba5ies.' This is supposed to be the ira
dItional snake, and, IN consequence, the
whole locality is somewhat uneasy wheD
wandering abroad. The serpent is said TO
make its nome IN a swamp just below El-
mer, and parties are now out every day
hunting for him.
